studio:

URBAN DESIGN PRINCIPLES

location:JEWELRY DISTRICT, PROVIDENCE, RI

goals + objectives:

Dealing with the larger scope of urban plan-

ning allowed me the chance to take into con-

sideration more issues which were all included

in a proposal asking for three types of housing

(dormatory, hotel, and eldery) as well as two

venues for public programs. On a site in the

Jewery Discrit of Providence, RI, I implement-

ed 150 units for housing as well as a market.

restaurant and a library for the convenience of

the nearby campus of Brown University.

studio:

DIGTAL REPRESENTATION

location:LINCOLN CENTER, NEW YORK, NY

goals + objectives:

This course gave me the tools of digital model-

ing and creating renderings. I was asked to use

these tools to create a site specific proposal. I

placed my installation in front of Lincoln Center

in New York City. My installation was designed

to provide a runway for fashion shows which

would take place at the Mercedes Benz Fash-

ion Center, as well as offer seating for specta-

tors, each element integrated with one another.

studio:

BLOSSOM COMMUNITY GARDEN

location:PAWTUCKET, RI

goals + objectives:

For this design-build project, our studio was

given a site in Pawtucket, RI where we were

then going to build a community garden for

the Chinese Christian Church of Rhode Island

and the nearby YMCA and retirement homes.

This site would also be used as an educa-

tional to for the surrounding elementary, junior

high, and high schools. Over the course of 12

weeks, the first half was dedicated to design

collaboration from seven designs down to

one. The second half of the twelve weeks was

dedicated to the on-site construction of our

design. 16

TEXTILES MUSEUM ANNEXWASHINGTON STREET, PROVIDENCE, RIadvanced studio w/ int.arch. : spring 2012

professor : heinrich hermann & neil logan

21

studio:TEXTILES MUSEUM ANNEX

location:WASHINGTON STREET, PROVIDENCE, RI

goals + objectives:

This studio took place in collaboration with

the Interior Architecture Department. The

Rhode Island School of Design Museum of Art

needed an annex for their Textiles Exhibition.

Between the re-programming of the exist-

ing George C. Arnold building in downtown

Providence, and the extensions into the back

parkinglot, my goal was to create a connected

museum and gallery space along with offices

and museum shops and a bookstore.

studio:

MEGAFORM

location:YENIKAPI, ISTANBUL

goals + objectives:

Based around the Yenikapi transit station in

Istanbul, Turkey, this studio’s purpose was

to create a megaform incorperating a high

school, archaeological archive, research

facilities, museum, train and bus stations, ferry

port, and commercial retail units. All of these

programs, when placed together, equated to

approximately one million square feet of

designed space.
